Answer: The required answer is
p^6.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to multiply or divide as indicated below :

E=p^3.p^2.p~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

The indicated operation is multiplication and we will be using the following property of exponents :

x^a.x^b=x^(a+b).

From expression (i), we get

$E\\\\=p^3.p^2.p\\\\=p^(3+2+1)\\\\=p^6.$

Thus, the required answer is
p^6.
